Information overload. This text really freaked me out at first. Family therapy is kind of scary but this book helped in the end. This text is the perfect size and does not weigh 50lbs. It's a little larger than your standard composition book. Arrived in time and perfectly.

A Very Comprehensive and Thoughtful Text on Family Therapy
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I have tried several books on family therapy as texts for my graduate course on Family and Couple therapy. This book is superior to other books that I have tried. The authors explain theoretical positions clearly and most importantly organize this vast area of social science into a well-organized discussion that is interesting and easy to follow. It is a serious text rather than convoluted and I'm thankful a text such as this for my students. Dr. Deborah Khoshaba
